Sample of the translated lyrics:

:You are a flower of love, I am a flower of romance

:Seizing time, shaking

:A tale of the moon, a tale of the stars, I continued to pray

:You are a trap of love, I am a trap of romance; seizing everything, we'll sleep

:A tale of the wind, a tale of a dream, an illusion that won't fade{{Ref|Lyrics}}
